Oddly priced PS3 bundles
SPOnG got this response from Spony… er, I mean Sony PR:
We’re not prepared to comment on 3rd party retail promotions, however, we’d like to reinforce that until the official price, release date and software line-up is announced by SCEE, all dates, prices & details etc. are purely speculative.
Why did they get that? Well they apparently decided to ask about why Littlewoods is pricing Sony software bundles are bit weird. Just to make it a bit more obscure for you guys, we’re going to let you do the math. Remember that 1.00 United Kingdom Pound = 1.97804 United States Dollars
The Littlewoods prices are:
- PS3 60Gb hard drive console plus Motorstorm = £549.00 (you pay £124 for one game)
- PS3 60Gb hard drive console plus Resistance: Fall of Man and Call of Duty 3 = £609.00 (two games cost £92).
- PS3 60Gb hard drive console plus Motorstorm and FIFA 2007 = £639.00 (each game costs £107 each)
- PS3 60Gb hard drive console plus Resistance: Fall of Man, Pimp My Ride, and Rainbow Six: Vegas = £659.00 (each game costs £78 each)
- PS3 60Gb hard drive console plus Genji 2, Motorstorm, Sonic the Hedgehog and Tony Hawks Project 8 = £699.00 (each game costs £68.50 each)
All of them are a bit mean to the wallet huh?
SPOnG points out that it’s best to buy a stand-alone PS3, and then go buy your games; only (even SPOnG is weirded out by this) no stand-alone is listed. Greeeeeat.
